Enter Network Password

[msdan]

Suddenly, when I'm trying to access my site I'm getting the password protected screen:

 

Enter Network Password

Site: server70.totalchoicehosting.com

Realm: Web Host Manager

 

This is happening only when I'm opening the first time the browser. If I'm clicking Cancel and call again the site it is working.

 

If open a new window and call again the site I'm getting again the screen protected.

 

http://www.craiovaonline.com

 

PS:

If you click the link from this post the site is working.

You have to open a new window and paste the address in this new window.

It works fine for me.

 

Have you done any modifications to the .htaccess file that could be causing a redirect for your IP address?

It works fine for me.

 

Have you done any modifications to the .htaccess file that could be causing a redirect for your IP address?

The .htaccess file looks like this:

 

 

# -FrontPage-

 

IndexIgnore .htaccess */.??* *~ *# */HEADER* */README* */_vti*

 

<Limit GET POST>

order deny,allow

deny from all

allow from all

</Limit>

<Limit PUT DELETE>

order deny,allow

deny from all

</Limit>

AuthName www.craiovaonline.com

AuthUserFile /home/***user***/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.pwd

AuthGroupFile /home/***user***/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.grp

Time to clear the cache - close the browser down completely - and then try it again I think.

[msdan]

Thank you for your responses

 

I think I found the problem (seems to be a script problem - so if you can, please move this post to Scripting Talk).

 

The issue appears only when I am logged in with cookies. The script is checking for the cookie and for some reason, when is doing this the Enter Network Password pops up.

 

I'm investigating to see why the script suddenly changed its behaviour:)

[TCH-Andy]

I'm glad you found the source of the problem - now you just have to sort out that script

[msdan]

setcookie ("cookie_name", "", time() - 31536000, "/", "www.craiovaonline.com");

 

this is the line where I'm getting the popup message

 

any thoughts?

[msdan]

I cannot figure out what's happening

 

to anybody from TCH - if you have time, please test a bit - maybe you can see if you get the screen.

 

I have to explain the steps because the site is not in english:(:

 

- see the left side of the screen shot

- go to www.craiovaonline.com

- use for username: craiova

- use for password: craiova

- check the box Save Password

- login

- close the browser

- call www.craiovaonline.com again (now you should get the popup)

- click cancel on the popup window

- call www.craiovaonline.com - now should work

 

I want to get rid of the popup

[msdan]

Ok, now I see that is a TCH issue;

 

Suddenly the code started to work again (I didn't get the popup message again) - no change in the script. This was fine for two days. This morning I'm getting again the popup message. I didn't touch my files for almost a week, so is not my fault.

 

Please tell me what's happening (read again the thread to see what's about)

[TCH-Rob]

I follow the directions in your last post and I do not get a popup at all. Seems to work for me.

[TCH-Dick]

I seen it. Have you put in a ticket to the Help desk?

[Deverill]

In Firefox the message comes up as:

Enter username and password for "Web Host Manager" at http://server70.totalchoicehosting.com:2086

 

If I just hit OK with no password attempt I go to a normal cPanel skinned login screen for "Web Host Manager Login".

 

Something in your script is trying to access the Web Host Manager utility or olse it is a problem only the helpdesk techs can help with.

 

Hope this helps narrow down the problem! At least it's a clue.

I just opened a ticket

Thank you for your help
